Okay, California State University materials.
Nice. I hope you do well on the test.
my current boss told me about the job as he did in Newark, he mentioned that test from them, I guess all 50 use that place.
Im not a fan of push button shifting. imagine if your car dies in the road, its now locked as the battery is dead and you have NO way of pushing it. it locks in gear, meaning if it was in first when it slowed down, then you cant push it to move it out of the way. even with semis Allison transmission where they can check fluid levels without the dipstick that is a problem. I have forgot to connect the ground for that module, and it wouldn't shift. despite the panel light up.

I like my 5 speed tranny in my F250. It's my private vehicle now but was set up as a commercial vehicle for the city of Colorado Springs before I got it. It has the tool boxes, 4WD, the tow package, the off road package, and a 5 speed! Though I only normally use 2nd thru 4th. This thing is a beast. The only time I don't like the 5 speed manual is when I'm trying to drink coffee...lol.
I like to keep both hands on the wheel in traffic. One hand on the shifter wouldn't feel comfortable.
they have six speeds, the tranny for that, which one was that? man I should know the name, it looks like the ranger one , the first manual clutch I replaced, i did two of them in school, it was easy and had it done in a few hours. t5 or t6. irc the slave cylnder on the ranger one was on the shaft while some of the older ones were old school like my nissan. easy to get to and replace and a nuisance to bleed.
My 93 LeMans automatic zonked out on the road. A police sergeant helpfully used his cruiser to push me to a safe location. It moved just fine.
I never keep my hand on the shifter unless its upshift time or im about to hit the brake for a light. once I hit the speed depending on traffic. shoot three sticks on a tree.!
Is an Automatic Transmission Safer for the Novice Driver?
**A contributed post as written for The Safe Driver. It’s a question that crops up more often than not now, especially as so many more people are driving an automatic car. Is an automa…
www.thesafedriver.ca
the article says its more dependent on the driver with both, depending on that issue with the gear issue to react, I have done that with my truck, down shift and avoid a problem on a severe incline. and well also use engine braking which really isn't with an automatic as if you slam it into third at 80, well that might not go well. with a stick it will simply raise the engine speed. ideally it would work that way with an auto but well it depends on what is drive and how many overdrive.
those had a shifter where you could simply move it into gear. a push button today doesn't. you can still shift the lemans into gear In that age. you cant even leave the car in neutral in the modern push button to roll the car forward or back to align it or set up on a lift. it will shift to park. unless your brake switch went bad even with a bad battery you can still shift most older type shifters. some cars will lock the shifter as the solenoid requires to be actuated whereas some use a linkage to allow the shifting.
Yes, the average person is probably better with automatic. The majority choose them. A few super skilled drivers do better with manual.
There are road sign saying not to use engine braking on them. Anyway, I just use the brakes. Pads aren't that expensive.
Okay, you may be talking about something I don't have in my 2018 Escape. It has a shift lever on the floor, just like my old LeMans did. It even has a feature where I can shift manually if I want to, rather than have the car shift automatically.
The push button trannies you describe don't sound safe. Maybe they will improve them over time.
not all can replace pads by themselves and well my rotors are floaters and usually cant be turned. 60 bucks to buy them. over one clutch every 5 years and brakes that long. could get 80 k or more on my front brakes and double that on the clutch.
versus if I did have an auto on my Nissan and tossing papers that cost would be a yearly event. its not hard to do the brakes but I prefer not to remove the hub just to get the rotor off. given how I used to drive I wouldn't want under spec rotors stopping me.
these are simply switches, some are lever like but really are just selectors, the linkage you mention still are attached and have a link to a sensor like the older ones do. the newer ones are likely a module that uses the switch as a potentiometer, we use these to adjust lights, change radio stations and also to turn on and set the speed of a wiper.
Okay, hiring an ASE service station to replace pads is not that expensive. I wouldn't drive a manual just to save on that. I would only drive a manual if I enjoyed driving a manual. Which you seem to like.
Probably. Still, a fluid coupling tranny has no direct connection. The vehicle should keep on rolling forward as long as it doesn't shift into park.
my part time job, charges over 300 bucks on some models. some models require more labor to remove the rotor . I have pulled trailing arms off to get to the rotor. some models it will be over a grand. usually the higher price cars.
I drive a stick because it was the cheapest. because of my wife's age and myself getting older when that dies, I will find an auto since if the Tacoma breaks down, my wife cant operate my truck.
gear selection remains by a solenoid if the solenoid is set up to block pressure without power as they usually do then it goes into park as NO fluid can keep the clutch pack from disengagning. I have seen a dead one of these were we couldn't push that and we had to charge the battery just to be able to shift it into neutral.even they are still rolling, you have to move it at some time.

I bought my clutch kit sans the flywheel cheaper then that. the flywheel put me over 300. it took two days to install it, one day to get the tranny out and the next day to put the clutch in. we had it out the first day. flywheel and all. I had a helper who bought lunch, I have helped him on a few cars and loaned tools to him and we still will do this. he has helped others for no cost, I helped him with brakes and also a ball joint and he helped me on a fuel pump on my ranger.
